It is necessary to write, if the days are not to slip emptily by. How else, indeed, to clap the net over the butterfly of the moment? For the moment passes, it is forgotten; the mood is gone; life itself is gone. That is where the writer scores over his fellows: he catches the changes of his mind on the hop. ~Vita Sackville-West
Writing is a socially acceptable form of schizophrenia. ~E.L. Doctorow
Substitute "damn" every time you're inclined to write "very;" your editor will delete it and the writing will be just as it should be. ~Mark Twain

Family Fun

It's been awhile since I've had the time or energy to do much baking or crafting, so I decided to take a look around on www.familyfun.go.com. I started with pies, as Thanksgiving is just around the corner and I'll have to start getting supplies. Here are a couple that look delicious and fun!

There's also so many fun family crafts on there! I can't wait to get started! I saw some very cute pipe cleaner ideas... also very inexpensive! Yay!  I'll be sure to add to this post when we make some stuff and I'll tell you all about it!

Liberty Plaza Occupiers March to DC

I just happened to be checking out www.occupywallst.org, and saw that some of the Liberty Plaza Occupiers will be leaving the park tomorrow 11/9/11 at noon. Over the next 2 weeks, they will occupy the highway and march to Washington, DC. They will be there by the 11/23/11 Super Committee meeting. Just imagine how big this could get! How many people will join in on this march? I can't wait to see the word spreading even faster and what twists this may cause! This group has a page setup www.nycmarch2dc.wordpress.com with a link to stay up to date on the march.. here it is! http://nycmarch2dc.wordpress.com/category/march-updates-and-details/  This was a great idea and I look forward to tracking them and hearing from you!
